There's another thing to think carefully of: in many countries (Italy for example) comparative advertising is not allowed. No matter if FreeBSD is not a commercial product, you cannot have its daemon break Windows' (tm) logo (or any other logo). If you want the shirts and the logo all over the world (yes, I remember Jordan said that the shirts and the rest will not be for production, but I still hope they will be in the future :), you must find something else. Besides any other legal restriction, I find funny the idea of breaking some Microsoft (tm) thing, but I'd not like seeing it on the FreeBSD shirts. FreeBSD is postive, FreeBSD is pro, FreeBSD is not against anything!
